Seeking Volunteers for Hope Lodge Thursday Healing Touch Sessions

Posted over 5 years ago by Elaine Krul

Healing Touch Saint Louis provides Healing Touch free of charge to patients and caregivers at Hope Lodge  (4215 Lindell Blvd, St. Louis, 63108). We have a group of volunteers that each take one Thursday a month (each volunteer picks the times usually sometime between 3 PM to 8 PM to provide Healing Touch - usually 30-45 min sessions (about 4-5).

There is a table already at Hope Lodge; the volunteer can bring a pillow, bolster and/or blanket.. There also is a CD player but some of the volunteers bring their own and some music.

Please let me know if you would be interested in volunteering by responding to this message. This is a great opportunity to practice and gain some hours of experience and is most welcomed by the patients and caregivers. A current volunteer can provide a "shadowing" session to get you started.

 Thank you!
